Spiders don't have antennae, which yours clearly does. Also, I can't make out
more than six legs. Some ant species are hairy and the queens chew off their
wings after fertilisation. I wonder if the same happens with some species of
bumble bees? There is a scarlet tailed bumblebee, Bombus coccineus but I don't
have any other information about it.

I looked up "Red fuzzy butt spider" and was pointed to the Johnson Jumper:

Mind you, my inner 12 year old goes a very different place with the phrase "Johnson
Jumper".
Oh, and I think the snake might be a red diamond rattlesnake.

Not spiders. Some form of wingless bee?

Mediocre photos of cute spiders with fuzzy red butts, and better photos of a
rattlesnake. I've never seen one like this before, very different colors and
markings than I'm used to.
Yeah, the album starts out with some flowers because some people are funny
about the weirdest things.
